HARRISBURG, PA.
Friday Afternoon, October 25, 1861.
Till FIRST lon.—An intelligent farmer from
South Hanover township, this county, informs
us that the water in that section was covered
this morning with a thin sheet of ice, the first
of the season.
1=32:1
A LARGE number of volunteer companies, and
parts of companies, from different sections of the
States, have arrived at Camp Curtin within the
last few days, There is material enough at that
camp now to form several regiments.
WYNKOOP'S REGIMENT.—We understand
that Col. Wynkoop's cavalry regiment, at
Camp Cameron, has been thoroughly uniformed
and supplied with nearly the requisite number
of horses. They expect to receive their arms
and marching orders some time next week.—
Capt C. C. Davis' company is attached to this
regiment.
TIMID PEOPLE who apprehended danger from
the existence of a large quantity of powder in
the State Arsenal, may now have their minds re
lieved in knowing that the " vilianous com
pound," consisting of some twenty odd tons,
has recently been removed to the State Maga
zine, detached from the Aisenal, and perfectly
secure from accident.
I=3:=l
WILD GEESE —During the past week, large
flocks of wild geese have been observed wend
ing their way southward. A number of flocks
were noticed day before yesterday, and last
night their discordant cries were frequently
heard, they apparently flying quite low. The
appearance of wild geese is said by the knowing
ones, to indicate the early appearance of cold
weather. And if signs do not fail, we may look
out for a speedy approach of the reign of the
Ice King.
FASTEN TOON VAULT COTERB.—Very few peo
ple take the trouble to fasten down securely the
covers of the vault openings in the sidewalks,
and children in playing frequently lift out the
covers and do not replace them properly, leav
ing a trap into which the nest pedestrian pass
ing may be precipitated, to the danger of his
life. Vault covers should be so weighted or
fastened down as to be immovable, except when
necessary to put down coal, and then moved
only by proper parties.
=I
Paws.— Mayor's Office.— Eugene Marseilles
was arraigned for violating one of the Market
ordinances, and fined $1 and costs.
Agars Steward— a broad faced Milleaian
lady, with a shock of unkempt hair as red as
the tip of her pug nose—was arraigned for
drunkenness and " lying around loose." Dis
charged with an injunction to leave the city
forthwith.
Jack Jones, John Wright and Bill Watkins—
the negroes arrested for card playing in Shell's
lumber yard a day or two ago—were again
brought up for hearing, and remanded back to
the lock-up.
TIER RAILROAD REGIMENT. —We still continue
to receive favorable accounts of this regiment,
both in regard to the health and spirits of the
men. The first detachment which left York is
still on guard along the line of the road, and
the balance of the regiment is in camp at Cock
eysville. Last Monday evening a party of some
twenty or thirty armed men approached the
camp and fired on the pickets. The fire was
returned by the pickets, which alarmed the
whole camp. The troops were ordered under
arms and preparations made for an assault, but
the perpetrators of the outrage had fled. The
Colder Fenciblos, of this city, are attached to
this regiment, and were on picket duty at the
time of the attack last Monday night.
TFIZ "WILD CAT" Boys AT WORIC.--Gen.
McCall made a reconnoisance from Drainesville
to Camp Pierpont on Monday. No rebels were
found except to the Southward, where four or
five hundred were reported at Hampton Station,
on the Leesburg Railroad. The rebel pickets
were also found three miles west of Drainesville.
Sunday evening, five of Kane's Wild Cat Regi
ment, Pennsylvania Reserve Corps, were on
picket duty southward, when fifteen rebel cav
alry came up and fired on them. They return
ed the fire, and four out of the fifteen fell from
their saddles. Three of the bodies were taken
away, but the fourth was secured, and proved
to be private Watts, of the "Louisiana Tigers."
His shot-gun, loaded with buckshot, sword and
equipments were brought in by them. The
ball went in at his eye, and tore away his head
killing him instantly.
A DAUGHTER OF THE REGIMENT.—The Phila
delphia Fire Zouaves have attached to their
corps a young lady named Virginia Hall, as
vivandiere of the regiment. In person Miss Hall
is above the medium height. She is a bright
blonde, having a clear blue eye, and her light
hair cut short like a lad's, and parted on the
side. Her nose is slightly retrousse, her mouth
well formed, and when she converses, even den
tists might go mad at the display of so -fine a
set of teeth. Her uniform consists of a blue
Zouave shirt, trimmed with same colored braid,
a Zouave jacket of the same color, and similarly
ornamented, a tunic shirt, dark pants, Zouave
light leather gaiters, extending from the knee
down, a liberty cap with a red band, a blue
top,a green sash and hospital steward's chevron.
She wears a short sword and small revolver at
tached to her belt. Decidedly her appearance
is prepossessing. Miss Hall is a Bostonian by
birth ; she received a fine education at one of
the academic institutions on the Western Re
serve, Ohio, and by her intelligence, fine con
versational powers, and pleasing manners, she
impresses those who form her acquaintance very
favorably. She makes herself generally useful
about the hospital, and renders whatever ser
vice she can to make the camp more comforta
ble. The Fire Zouaves take great pride in her,
and quickly resent any imputations made
against their vivandiere.
See Professor Wood's advertisement in another
olumn.
M. 0. D. Foams has opened a coal yard'at
the canal, foot of North street, where every vari
ety of the "black diamond" can be procured
at panic prices. Orders left at the office. No,
74 Market street, will be promptly attended to.
CAPTAIN ABRAHAM V. MILLER passed our of
fice this morning at the head of a splendid body
of men recruited from among the - very best ci
tizens of Centre county, which he designs at
taching to one of the Cavalry Regiments about
being organized by the state authorities. Cap
tain Miller was in the three months service, and
spring from a family of fighting Quakers who are
as devotedly attached to the cause of the union
as any class of men in the county. He will dis
tinguish himself when the opportunity offers.
SOHB of TEMPERANCIL— The following named
gentlemen have been elected officers of the Grand
Division of the sons of Temperance for the en

Grand Conductor—Wm. Bitting.
Grand Sentinel—Abram Brown.
RAILROAD Acoresar.—About 2 o'clock yester
day morning, the locomotive of the Express
Freight Train (No. 198) met with an accident
which resulted in a severe scalding of the en
gineer, Mr. Kimes. The accident occurred
near Landis' Crossing, three miles below Lan
caster, and was caused by the "wagon top" be
ing blown off—which, though not dangerously
injuring any one, detained the train sometime.
The injuries of the engineer, though not dan
gerous, are of course very servers. He was im
mediately taken to a house in the neighborhood
and his wounds attended to. These accidents
will occur, even on the best managed roads, and
it is fortunate the injury done is no worse.—
Mr. Kimes, we understand, is doing well.
1=!=1
How no Soma PEOPLE Lrvz ?—Perhaps this
aint any body's business, but it is certainly as
tonishing how a class of beings can get along
so swimmingly without any apparent business.
To labor is the duty (f all men, but especially
those who are dependent upon their labor for
their daily bread. Yet there are some of this
class the most indolent men living. Now the
wealth and prosperity of any community
depends upon the industry of its inhabi
tants: Show us a locality where all are
producing something, and we will show you a
thriftycommunity—the reverse where indolence
prevails. In this country a man must labor,
and nowhere does labor pay better. No man
need be idle—it is sheer nonsense to say there
is nothing to do—of course everybody cannot
follow the most pleasant and lucrative pur
suits ; but there is work to do. Will you do it?
A PARADISE FOR HUNTERS.—From all accounts
the neighborhood of Altoona, Blair county,
must be a perfect Paradise for hunters. The
last number of the Tribune, published at
that place, says that recently a gentleman and
companion were gathering blackberries in a
field where there were a great number of pheas
ants. Every few minutes one would rise up
from among the bushes and dart forward like
an arrow. Hearing a noise in the bushes a short
distance from him, he raised his head just in
time to see the bird rise and fly towards him.
As it was passing he made a stroke at it with
his hand, intending only to frighten it, but,
singularly enough, he caught it fairly by the
head. The velocity of its flight would not al
low its body to stop there, consequently the head
remained in the old gentleman's hand, while
the body fell in the bushes several rods beyond,
and was afterwards recovered. Bully for Al
-1 toona.
Symms OF A VoLturaart.—A young man
named John Greer, residing in North Hunting
don township, Westmoreland county, commit
ted suicide the other day under the following
circumstances ; It appears that he had volun
teered in some company in the vicinity, and on
Friday last was to have joined it. The accom
modation train, on which he wished to leave,
being due at Carpenter's station, he went to his
bedroom in the house of Alexander Duff, where
he had been stopping for some time, to make
preparations for his departure. Mrs. Duff being
up stairs, he ordered her down. In a few min
etas she heard the report of a rifle overhead,
and hastening back to ascertain the cause, found
the deceased lying upon the floor and bleeding
to death. He had, it appears, taken off one of
his boots, and seating himself on the bed, dis
charged the rifle with his foot, the contents en
tering his body, and producing injuries from
which four hours afterwards ha died.
TINE IFOR ECONOMY. —The necessities of the
war have created a demand for labor in nearly
all our manufacturies and Government estab
lishments, and skilled workmen have no diffi
culty at finding employment at fair wages.—
This work however, is not like the regular em
ployments of industry, certain of its duration,
and depending upon the regular wants of the
population of the country. It may last as
long as the war, and It may cease in a few
months, ending just as suddenly as the
dethand for it has • been created. It is
the part of prudence then, in those who are
now in a situation to save a " portion of their
wages to exercise the closest economy, so that
any sudden cessation of employment will not
leave them, in the middle of winter, without
the means of subsistence. It is usual in the
time of public distress, to rely upon the mer
chants for contributions to help the unemploy
ed to support themselves, but it must be re
membered that this resource is no longer avail
able, for the stoppage of the ordinary channels
of trade has:prostrated the merchants, and they
have now as much as they can attend to pro
viding for_their own wants. The only sensible
and sure plan is for each laborer to be provident
now while he has employment, husband every
cent, expend nothing in idle pleasures or
amusements, use his wages to the best advan
tage in providing for his present wants, and
secure for winter most of the articles he will
need to make him and his family comfortable.
A little self-denial and a little economy, judi
ciously exercised at the present time, may serve
Ito keep want from the door before the winter is
through.

How TO Meru , GRA-PI JELLY.—The following
is given as a superior recipe for making grape
jelly. Wash the grapes thoroughly in cold
water, separate them from the stems, and mash
them in an earthen vessel, put them over the
fire and boil them twenty minutes Strain them
through a bag made of three thicknesses of
white mosquito netting ; to every pint of the
juice add one and a quarter pounds sugar, and
boil twenty minutes. Put up in pint jars—
china is the strongest; paste white paper over
the top, and tie a piece of strong muslin tight
ly around.
THE ART OF JUMPING OFF RAILWAY Cans.—lt
has been said there is art in everything. There
is certainly some art in jumping from a car
when in motion. Most persons imagine that
they must jump forward, in the direction the
car is moving. It is a mistaken notion. The
proper way is to took forward, that is, the
way the car is going, and step off backward ;
and if the car is moving - very rapidly, give a
spring backward just as you let go the rail. In
this way, by springing against or opposite the
motion of the car, you overcome the impetus
carrying you forward, and are left standing per
fectly still ; whereas when you jump with the
car, you are plunged forward by its motion.
FIRE NEAR CAMP Cuarrs.—About 11 o'clock
this morning, flames were discovered issuing
from a small outhouse belonging to the farm,
immediately above Camp Curtin. The alarm
was quickly given, when a large number
of soldiers proceeded from the camp to the
scene of conflagration, and after some difficulty
succeeded in arresting the progress of the fire
before it had entirely consumed the structure.
The mansion house, barn, and other outbuild
ings on the farm, being in a cluster, were for
some time in imminent danger, and would un
doubtedly have been destroyed had it not been
for the timely aid rendered by the soldiers.—
The fire is supposed to have originated by a
heated stove pipe passing thought a wood parti
tion in the building.
THE Pennsylvania Railroad Company has
just added 200 eight-wheeled cars to its rolling
stock, intended to accommodate the tonnage of
the Westmoreland coal company. The ton
nage of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company is
steadily on the increase, and from present in
dications, coal will soon be one of the important
items of its trade. Its passenger and miscel
laneous freight business is now very heavy,
probably equal to that of any other road
of like capital in the country, the receipts for
the year ending on the Ist inst., amounting to
over seven millions of dolktrs ! Three through
passenger trains run daily between Pittsburg
and Philadelphia, connecting direct at Phila
delphia with through trains to and from Bos
ton, New York, and all points east, and in the
Union Depot at Pittsburg with all through
trains to and from all points in the west, north
west and southwest.

GENERAL ORDER NO. 10.
HARRISBURG, PA., OCt. 22, 1861
It is with great pain that the Governor and
Commander-in-Chief has learned the death of
Col. Edward D. Baker upon the field of battle.
Although not a citizen of Pennsylvania, he had
been selected by many of her sons as their com
mander, and he met his death while gallantly
leading them into action. The same feeling
which inspired his soldiers to regard no state
lines, when our common country is in danger,
induced the Commander-in-Chief to recognize
him, while living, as a Pennsylvania soldier,
and impels him, now that he is dead, to bear
this public testimony to his gallantry and worth.
By command of
Governor and Commander-in-Chief.
